Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

The point isn't to bring in more conservatives. They've reached that saturation point.
They are killing the fourth estate and buying up the social media to control the messages we see. These were all targeted to disarm the left of truth.
